Like any other day, when I got home from vacation, I took off my favorite necklace and put it away. Yesterday, I took it out to wear and it was a tangle-ly mess. I mean, knots and everything so I tried to untangle it. Five minutes went by. Ten minutes went by.

Getting frustrated I started talking to myself, “I don’t remember it being like this when I put it away. I would NEVER put it away like this…Ugh…For crying out loud, I just wanna wear my favorite necklace! Is that too much to ask? Sheesh!”

Now, the necklace was in worse shape than when I started. Pissed, I put it away and began my day without it. (Boo!)

Background

During my egg freezing research, I looked for anything and everything to read or watch that would give me a better idea of what to expect during the process. Most of the information out there speaks to the science, which is fascinating. But there’s another huge, important piece that’s being left out--The physical and emotional responses a woman experiences throughout the egg freezing process. I wanted to share my adventure in a way where others could participate - see what I saw; feel what I felt. That’s how Chill was born.

The Film

Chill is a touching documentary about a single woman fighting to preserve her fertility and dreams of motherhood through egg freezing in her mid-thirties. Weeks before she decided to freeze her eggs, Jenni began documenting her thoughts on fertility and parenthood. Throughout the film, she shares her story with vulnerability, courage and humor. Chill is more than a film; it’s a mindset. It’s about determination, living with intention and being true to yourself. This story is as original as it is relatable and when it comes to fertility, educational as it is eye opening. Ultimately, Chill is an inspirational film about hope, love and family.
